Stealth 500 headset connection issues in online gameplay on Xbox
I have a stealth 500 Xbox headset (that connects via usb Bluetooth to the console) and an Xbox series X. My headset works fine for other games, but NHL 26 (and 25) both recognize the headset as a controller connected to the lead profile. When I try to access online gameplay, such as in HUT, Online versus, or in queue for World of Chel in my club, I receive a message stating "lead profile required". And I either can't access the menu to search for a game, or the game registers no input from my controller. In NHL 25, I used to be able to workaround the issue by power cycling my game, my console and headset. At the very least, I used to be able to get into the game and then turn on my headset to force NHL to recognize my controller as the lead profile. This year, no amount of power cycling has worked. If I turn on my headset, even in the middle of a game in progress, NHL switches my controller to "2nd controller" and my headset is recognized as the lead profile. Turning my headset off doesn't fix the issue and I'm forced to idle until I am kicked from the game. Since I typically only play NHL in world of chel, with my brothers in an Xbox party, this is a major inconvenience. Does anyone have any similar experiences or suggestions?The game is broken
THIS GAME IS BY FAR THE WORST HOCKEY GAME I HAVE EVER PLAYED IN MY 25 years of loving this game and you just condone to the same BS with terrible goalies glitch goals how about you actually watch peoples game play and see how people are playing your game you have thousands of people that pay 90 to 70 dollars for the same game but wait it’s way worse….do better how about you have some of your staff actually watch a hockey game
Can't play the game after 15 hours in
Bought the $100 version to get the 7 day early access. Have been playing all week and randomly just started getting a bunch of errors preventing me from playing. Error - There was an error downloading assets. Please try again later Failed to refresh World of Chel game modes Etc. Can't imagine paying an extra $30 for 7 days early access and only getting half of those days. Begging for a fix.
